I was scheduled to fight in November of 2008 in a kickboxing show called XMA. There were some controversies that happened between my management team as well as some of the promoters as far as setting up the fights. There was some talk of Ken Shamrock but nobody else had talked to Ken about it as far as the promoting.

I'm proud of them and I am happy to see that the Frank Mir that we all wanted to see back in the day is truly here and I think he's here to say. I have a really good friend in his trainer, Ken Hahn at Striking Unlimited and I'm glad that they're getting the respect that they deserve now.

I have too many guys that count on me as a coach so in 2009 you're going to see me in a lot of cages and rings but I'll only be in them to corner my fighters.

If I had train someone to fight Anderson Silva that would probably be my biggest challenge yet as far as being prepared for a striker.

What I think a lot of that was K-1 having had their Grand Prix finals not even a month before the "Dynamite!!" show so a lot of those guys were coming into that fight pressured to fight.

I think when it comes to Anderson Silva, it comes down to his speed, his distance and his timing are impeccable. They are second to none and that's what makes him dangerous.

There's a lot of great strikers in the business but no one should ever forget about Chuck Liddell.
